698 The Entire Village’s Improvement (1)
Song Shi’s voice came from inside. He knew why everyone was here, so he did not mind strengthening them to test it out.
Other than having more samples to observe, he also wanted the villagers to become stronger. This way, if there was any trouble, he would not have to appear.
When the villagers heard this, they were delighted.
They had also heard the news that Song Shi’s watchdog could become a demon. They guessed that Song Shi had some ability that could help them increase their cultivation or speed up their cultivation.
Now that they had seen the watchdog speak with their own eyes, they clicked their tongues in wonder and had more thoughts about the purpose of this trip.
Song Shi’s courtyard was not big. After the group of villagers entered, it was a little crowded.
The village chief walked in front and politely cupped his fists at Song Shi, who was touching a stone in front of the pool. “Young Master Song, the autumn harvest has ended recently. Every family has something and wants to give you something.”
Song Shi turned around and took a look. Some were holding silk cloths that had just been woven, some were carrying melons and fruits, some were carrying various grains, some were holding furniture that had been woven or made, and there were also some prey and medicinal herbs.
Everyone rarely repeated it. This was also deliberately done by everyone. They tried their best to divide the work so that their lives would not be too bitter when they exchanged items.
Song Shi took a look and smiled. “Looks like I’m going to be the only person in the village who doesn’t engage in production but can have the most abundant resources.”
Everyone smiled. Since Song Shi said so, it meant that he did not object to their actions.
Xu Hongniang echoed, “Young Master, you’re a superhuman figure. Why would you need to spend so much effort on these things? It’s our greatest blessing that you’re guarding our Qingsang Village. We should all come and worship you.”
Song Shi was speechless. “You’re making it sound like I’ve ascended to heaven. Put down your things. I won’t take your things for nothing. According to your situation, I’ll give you a gift.”
He looked at the people who came and a.n.a.lyzed everyone’s situation. Then, he increased his attributes according to their individual situation.
However, it was strange to level up directly. He glanced at the food and fruits and said, “I’ll treat you to a bowl of porridge. Wait for me for a while. I’ll stroll around the courtyard.”
He took the food and walked to the kitchen.
“Young Master, let me help you.”
Xu Hongniang took the opportunity to follow him. “Is Young Master’s wife not back yet? Young Master still has to cook personally.”
“Why? Do you mean that women should be the ones cooking?”
Song Shi asked in return and did not reject Xu Hongniang from following him.
“Ah, it’s mostly like this outside.” Xu Hongniang was surprised, and her eyes were filled with splendor. “Young Master, you’re too good. You’re actually willing to cook personally without letting Madam suffer.”
“Not to that extent. Whoever wants to do it can do it. No one should do it.”
Song Shi shook his head.
“Young Master’s wife is too happy.”
Xu Hongniang was envious.
“Unhappy.”
Song Shi shook his head. The weaker ones of his women were separated from him while the stronger ones were trapped in the Reincarnation World by him at the same time.
“I’m sorry. I might have reminded Young Master of bad memories.”
Xu Hongniang was sorry. After a moment of silence, she said, “Young Master, do you want a maidservant who can help you take care of ch.o.r.es, such as cooking and washing clothes?”
“You don’t have to.”
Song Shi shook his head. He could add points to these villagers, but he would not interact with them in depth. After all, these villagers were different from those obedient animals.
“Fine.”
Xu Hongniang was a little disappointed. She still didn’t have the chance to interact with this man.
After entering the kitchen, Song Shi made a big pot, added water, and started to cook porridge.
In the courtyard, the villagers looked around and exclaimed from time to time.
“This stone actually contains rich Spiritual Qi!”
“Look at this cherry tree. Is it Spirit Wood? It feels very extraordinary.”
“The fish in the pool are not ordinary either. I remember who caught them back then.”
“It’s not just the fish I gave Young Master. Many things here were given to us back then.”
“Young Master is really a G.o.d. It’s just that living here, the things and living beings nearby seem to have been reborn.”
“I’m really envious. I even want to be Young Master Song’s guard.”
“There are already watchdogs…”
The more they watched, the more excited they became. The things they saw around them were too magical.
They looked forward to seeing if Song Shi would give them any benefits and felt uneasy.
Not long after, Xu Hongniang came out gloomily and a group of people surrounded her.
“Widow, how was your discussion with Young Master Song?” The village chief was curious.
Xu Hongniang shook her head. “I didn’t see anything. Young Master is really cooking porridge. It’s still the food you planted. He just added a few more types and made it into mixed grain porridge.”
“Ah, just cooking porridge? He didn’t add any heavenly treasures?”
Someone found it strange. “From Young Master’s tone, the porridge should be beneficial.”
“I don’t know.”
Xu Hongniang said helplessly.
“Everyone, stop guessing. Young Master is the one who decides what to do. Don’t be too greedy.”
The village chief waved his hand. “It’s already a great thing for us to have an expert like Young Master. Don’t ask for too much.”
Everyone could only shut up and wait obediently.
Not long after, the fragrance of the porridge spread out. Song Shi strengthened the porridge and increased the energy contained in it. Then, he carried the pot out.
Seeing him come out, everyone looked at the pot curiously. Other than feeling that the porridge was especially fragrant,
“There are too many people. Everyone can only eat a bit less.”
Song Shi patted the pot and the porridge flew up. It floated in the air and was quickly distributed equally to everyone.
